But they didn't. They sold us out instead.
It was up to US to think of our tax base, our security, and our kids' futures, but far too many of us thought saving a few pennies on communist made paint brushes was more important.
Now, our money is being used by the Chicoms to build up their military and infrastructure while we have to borrow to pay for theirs. We had to raise the debt limit in 2024 just to pay the interest on all of the money we borrowed. And we sold out our own kids, who are now rioting instead of holding down the jobs they trained for and paying off their loans.
And after all of that, where are those cheaper prices we were promised?
“while we have to borrow to pay for theirs” should be “while we have to borrow to pay for ours”.
